MBA Admissions Consultants, Events, & Resources

Having recently navigated the deferred MBA application cycle, I understand exactly what admissions committees at top programs are seeking right now. I secured acceptances to the deferred MBA programs at Northwestern and MIT, so my greatest asset as a coach is my fresh, firsthand proximity to this highly competitive process. I understand the challenge of balancing rigorous academics with test prep and application revisions, and I know how to strategize effectively to help you cross the finish line during senior year. My core competencies lie in essay editing, resume crafting, and application and interview strategy. As the Academic Director for my school's consulting branch, I spent my college career breaking down high-stakes recruiting processes into actionable, step-by-step strategies for my mentees. Whether we are refining your resume or identifying the cohesive narrative in your personal statement, I am here to build a customized strategy that helps you succeed. I've successfully coached 5 individuals, helping them craft compelling applications. I strongly believe in mentorship (I am an older sister, so I really can't take it out of me) and couldn't have accomplished my goals without mentors - I really want to pay it forward. Let's work together to make your application stand out and secure your spot at a top business school!

I specialize in deferred MBA and love helping candidates uncover what makes their story uniquely compelling. As a Moelis Fellow at The Wharton School and Stanford graduate, I’ve navigated the deferred MBA process myself and understand what makes these applications distinct. My own path at Stanford spanned engineering, social impact, and the arts, so I’m especially passionate about helping candidates connect seemingly disparate experiences into a cohesive, authentic story.
